If you do, don't forget to download all of the sounds within the download-window.

Thanks. Almost forgot. I definitely need a drive for this

This is one of the greatest tests of gas resistance ever. 69.99 for all of this seems crazy to pass up, yet i know i don't need it. I will likely grab because ik has been great to me over the years.

Has anyone thoroughly checked this thing out yet?

Yes. I love it.

I prefer Good Vibrations.  (I'm a Brian Wilson fanatic - and I just found this at a Dallas record store a few weeks ago - an original 1966 Capitol Records "Good Vibrations" 45).  

 

My son found a  like new promo copy of Stevie Wonder's Innervisions on Vinyl.

I got this and never actually registered or installed

Looking forward to adding to my Mastering the Mix collection (all gotten free either via giveaways or bundles).  BASSROOM is the one I’ve used the most.

I keep forgetting I have Bassroom.  I also forgot what Animate even does lol. I just got Reso amd use it a lot. I am sad they dropped their balancing channels site. It was a great teaching aid

I wonder if they will ever fix the bpm inaccuracy?

This is an absolute no brainer, especially if you mix any form of pop music.  

Neutron should be in any debate of best channel strips. It just gets omitted a lot because:

1) it doesn't look like or emulate any one classic channel strip

2) People get caught up in AI aspect and forget that you can use it 100% without using AI. 

The user interface is far more functional than using mouse to get frustrated with a bunch if round knobs.  Each individual component is damn good on it's own and despite not emulating any one product, does a good job of providing the functionality of those products minus the exact colorization ( something most emulations fall short on). With that said, it's not my favorite, but when I do use it, I find myself wondering why I don't use it more

The timeshaper freebie pushes it over the edge. Most pb freebies have been meh. I will actually use this one even if the comp is redundant. 

The last thing I need is another compressor but too good too pass up. ( sounds like a title if a chapter in the book of Gas).

I wonder when the whole trap marketing will be exhausted.  I think when developers give away loops it's usually Trap. 

Trap has become a catchall for many subgenres in rap, EDM and pop and thus broad enough to include things that are often very different. Most of Arianah Grande's recent albuns have been very trap influenced.  In some ways it is laziness on the part of marketing people.  The other part is trap has changed from underground 120ish bpm with rap done at 6oish bpm , synth based production with southern themes around trap/drug culture to more pop friendly and faster version that also includes sampling.  All the offshoots were labeled same. It probably has a good 5 years at least before it dies

I picked up because I sooooo need another channel strip and more Wuppage🤣

I like this better as a set of drumkits for when i feel lazy than a serious tool to make beats. Like most genre specific products it suffers from being a dew years past the trend it is emulating.  To the casual listener all trap sounds alike, but every year some small aspect changes.  For 19 it is worth it but will not give you much beyond what you already have if you already know how to make trap. A nice touch is everything is tuned.

Truth be told, I own several of their channel strips and this is the only one I regularly use.

We should at least give the guy that provided this the clicks:

Remember when we got 3 console emulation in cakewalk like 10 years ago? Cakewalk did a lot of things ahead of it's time.  I will probably snatch anyway to compare. Thanks

Got the AnalogStage MK2 and Harmonics Pro upgrades this month. SongKey Mk4 is another fine one. 

Does anyone else find that Songkey always gets the BPM 1 bpm off?

I got this a couple of years ago. It's decent but definitely in the "not a major upgrade of stock synth" category. If I wanted a free upgrade over stock synths, Vital and Surge are better options. This, is however very simple if that is the goal.

Better, I’m sure, but I’m addicted to the bounty of Pianoteq Pro

Still, even though Arturia’s Piano is said to be based on an older version of Pianoteq, it’s well worth the upgrade as it does offer different sounds. 

Hmmmm

I have v collection 8 and i use it a lot. Just having hard time rationalizing upgrade. I already own augmented strings. Not sure if the rest is worth it

I always thought the original was underrated.  Not the best emulation but plenty of usable sounds like the 90s House organ. 

How different is this than the 200?

Seems like a double negative.  WUP then expires and plugins not working on 2nd machine.

I think plugins still work but you just can't install after WUP expires. I had rbass on two computers for ten years and both worked fine long after expiration
